Hey all... came across this the other day while sittin at a red light. Never seen it before and found it strange that a First Aid vehicle would have R+Bs. Anyone know anything more about this vehicle???
People call me an "Egotistic Jackass"... I prefer the term "Confident Donkey" --->Donks for short
They may have special dispensation from DPI for urgent driving duties. (Vehicles with red & blue lights are classed by DPI as a Priority 1 vehicle for responding to life threatening emergencies.)

not all the vfas vehicles have amber lights and transport dont have any lights
It wasn't me honest.....it was the cat I'm sweet and innocent one

Correct eswife.
The Vehicle must be an "Ambulance" and must display insignia as such and must convey sick or injured persons to hospital to have the red n blues. First aid vehicles are not ambulances and are not permitted to have red/blues.

Why they sell this I dunno...
I needed to buy portable red flashing lights for work a while back. The safety equipment company wouldn't sell them until they got a note from my supervisor. I never thought of Red Dot

LOL.... to be honest.. the vehicle did look pretty poorly built.. I think i would rather ride in a horse float to get help than go for a ride in the back of this beast.

Thats why P & W dont make them anymore and only a handfull out in some country vollie centres.
Don't they look like those Eastern States Rural Ambulances they use - the rear box is mounted on a late model Holden Ute - anyone remember these on the TV shows - I think Home and Away - years ago, had something like that???
